Well the reason I bring it up is because of something that happened to me recently. I was at the hair dressers for my regular appointment and we were chatting like normal. Long story short, I mentioned that I’m shy and awkward around women. She was surprised by that because I’m fine with her, but I clarified that it’s if I’m romantically interested in the woman. She stated that some guys whose hair she cuts sit there in silence and never say a word. I pointed out that shy guys like me generally fall into two camps: we either babble and say shit we don’t mean so that the woman ends up walking away thinking we’re a weirdo (my personal tactic), or we shut up and say nothing through fear that we’ll babble and say shit we don’t mean. So I said to her, “You’re very attractive (which she is) so the guys are probably intimidated by you and are too scared to say anything.” She didn’t say anything in response, instead she tossed her hair so it all hung down over her left shoulder, instead of hanging down her back like normal, and sort of played with it a bit. I didn’t think too much about it at the time, but later I thought about it and realised in the years she’s been cutting my hair, she’s never done that once. And there were some other things that could be interpreted as flirting.
Now, it could be a meaningless gesture. She could have did it deliberately in response to my compliments, or did it without realising. She knows neither of us are single so I assume it wasn’t deliberate flirting. I’m just curious about the hair thing. And that’s all this is, curiosity, since I’m normally extraordinarily unobservant when it comes to women flirting with me. I’m really not good with picking up on subtle hints!
